UPDATE.... Car went to the dealer I bought it from today they then said they couldn't do it so sent it to local Mazda main dealer who then fitted an upgrade not sure what as garage I bought it from doesn't seem to know either, apparently cost them over £400 so went to pick car up today to be told they want it back next week to sort a miss fire out, then they send to Mazda again, the car seems to be smoother and engine sounds better but still jerky when i put my foot down. Will update again next week

Dont want to be funny but are you putting 98 ron fuel in. I didnt know for the first few days/week because it came with a brimmed tank or 95 ron from the dealer (bmw). I know it sounds daft like, mine faults a little if she has to have 97 ron in. Oh and I had some fresh plugs in when I got mine. If not I am talking out my arse (as usual)  But welcome to the club anyway mate

I wouldn't be too impressed if I was told they 'upgraded' it for £400 and didn't even know what was done...an ECU update possibly?
